Varejao signs 6 year 50 million dollar deal

[elcheato]

The Cavaliers and forward Anderson Varejao have come to terms on a new contract.

The deal is for six years and $50 million, Varejao's agent, Dan Fegan, told the Plain Dealer.

"Andy wants to stay in Cleveland," Fegan said. "He feels there is unfinished business -- to win an NBA Championship."

Varejao had interest from several teams, including the Portland Trail Blazers and Oklahoma City Thunder and other potential sign-and-trade offers as well. But he and the Cavs were able to work through a deal over the last week to keep him with the Cavs, where he has been for his whole career.

We overpaid but whatever. He is going to be the starter once Shaq leaves, and we had to lock him up. But we sure did set the standard for big man. Good luck signing Odom back LA.

At least you didn`t overpay like the Raptors did with Bargnani. 5 years $50 million

 

[MapleLeaf]

I'd MUCH rather have Bargnani for 5 years and 50 million then Varajeo for 6 years and 50 million

 

[elcheato]

People will laugh at the contract, and most hate him because of his flopping but he is a very good player. He averaged a double double when starting I believe, and showed signs of improving his offensive game. And flopping is apart of defense, and he is good on D.

Agreed completely.

 

[yezzir]

that's a joke. and LO is deff still going back to LA.... i hope.

 

[MapleLeaf]

I actually really like Varajao, but 6 years at this price? idk

 

[sheed]

And I thought we overpaid Gordon...

 

[Mexi]

wow.

i mean i actually like Varejao, but dang thats a huge contract.

cheato, does Bynum's still look that bad lol

 

[The Young One]

He isnt a player worth that type of contract but the cavs had to have him to make a run at a title.

 

[elcheato]

wow.

i mean i actually like Varejao, but dang thats a huge contract.

cheato, does Bynum's still look that bad lol

Yea he still looks bad, I don't know why a contract of another player would effect how he looks. Not to mention there career stats are almost identical. Don't blow up on me, I know Bynum is better.

 

[Mexi]

I still can't believe this lol.

Varejao is a good player. but WOW.
$50M?!

idk what else to say.
WOW

 

[elcheato]

I still can't believe this lol.

Varejao is a good player. but WOW.

idk what else to say.
WOW

Isn't it wonderful, I can't imagine how much Odom thinks he's worth right now, good luck lol

 

[Pugz]

Before everyone bashes this contract, know that Anderson has the biggest gay following in the NBA lol.

 

[Mexi]

Isn't it wonderful, I can't imagine how much Odom thinks he's worth right now, good luck lol

Odom is worth $160M+

 

[elcheato]

Just found out the 6th year is not guaranteed.

 

[.GR]

Wow. Huge contract, deff not worth it but they need him for their title run.

 

[SaintFan25]

Wow, Cavs way overpaid. AV is good but not worth this kind of money.

 

[elcheato]

Alright, the actual deal is 6 years, 42.5 million dollars. That's not too bad.

 

[.GR]

Yeah, that's a lot better.
